LG’s L Series III heading to MWC 2014 next week, KitKat for all

In typical LG fashion, the South Korean manufacturer is taking great pleasure in detailing its Mobile World Congress (MWC) wares before the show actually gets underway.

We already know what to expect from the LG G Pro 2, and now we’re told we can officially brace for the inbound L Series III.

The L Series is becoming a firm fixture at ye olde Mobile World Congress, the first-generation chaps having launched in 2012, and the L Series II popping up this time last year.

Over on the LG Newsroom, the South Koreans detail a trio of phones they’re calling the L90, L70 and L40, aka the L Series III. As is often the case in the world of mobile, the higher number denotes a technically superior piece of kit.

In keeping with the standard set by the previous generations, the L Series III trio will be fairly middle of the road, with fancy features like KnockON and rear volume buttons reserved for the likes of the LG G2.
